Therefore, most of the high-ranking generals in the army are not optimistic, believing that the formation of chariot brigades and battalions occupies a lot of resources, and can only be used as a baggage vehicle when used on the battlefield, even if they are equipped with crossbows, they cannot change the facts.
Now, a considerable part of the military expenses of the forbidden army are given to the guards and sailors to build ships, and the guards and horses are overstretched.
Since the arms can't twist the thighs, Wang Xianggong has to form it, and there is no way, so let's form it.
It's just that very few people are willing to go to the two chariot brigade towns, resulting in the fact that the generals of these troops are very young, and even some people can directly serve as team generals when they come out of the guard Mabu University, and it is unimaginable to be placed in other departments.
According to the provisions of the military law, the maximum number of generals who join the military brigade is to be borrowed from the third class to serve as a general or escort of Dashi, and after one year, they can be transferred, and they can serve as a team general and master nearly 200 officials, which is simply unimaginable.
Li Shifu was relatively enlightened, he was very much in favor of equipping chariots, and under Wang Xiu's recommendation, he was appointed as the commander of the 52nd Brigade and Town.
In fact, with his status as a martial arts priest in the military department, he can be promoted to the capital colonel, which can be regarded as understanding Wang Xiu's true intentions, and he gladly accepted the dispatch, which made people fall into their glasses.
A cavalry had already probed the horses to report the news, and it didn't take too long to go back and forth, but they saw the chariots roaring in the distance, and the momentum was quite impressive, which made the party look a little distracted. He had seen a car battalion, and it was imposing, but it was just like that, but the convoy of a brigade town was mighty and was forming a battle formation, which was absolutely shocking.
It seems that the battle formation of the car brigade is not as simple as people think.
"Captain Dang, the town lord asked the captain to go over and talk, and the others stood by."
When Dang Yi saw Li Shifu for the first time, he felt that he was a gentle middle-aged man, without the slightest arrogance, which made people feel good at a glance, he did not grind, and immediately briefly talked about the battlefield.
"I didn't expect it to be like this." Li Shifu twisted his beard and pondered, his face was very solemn.
"I hope that the captain will send troops quickly." The party is in a hurry, many colleagues are in the circle, and the car brigade is no longer favored, he can only be a dead horse as a live horse, at least he can see the monstrous momentum.
"Looking at the situation, they have more than 50,000 people, and with my little force, I can't go deep lightly, but I am not afraid of them. Okay, you lead the army to merge into our department, I have my own way. Li Shifu didn't care about it, and his face didn't change much.
Thousands of people against tens of thousands, even if he is full of confidence in the new car soldiers, he can't help but feel a little weak.
However, he looked at the dust and smoke billowing in the distance, and the heart-wrenching shouts of killing, but he couldn't say anything anymore, and the blood in his chest was constantly boiling.
As a soldier, when he witnesses the trapped friendly army on the battlefield and is about to be wiped out, how can he watch from the sidelines or turn around and flee, not to mention anything else, ignoring the crisis of friendly forces, it is definitely not his character.
It was inconvenient for the party to say anything, so he could only leave to restrain the horse team and prepare to join the battle.
At this time, the 52nd Brigade Town began to form a battle formation, and the Dang Yi and the 52nd Brigade Town Horse Barracks joined forces and entered the center of the brigade town, and the four chariot battalions formed a circular phalanx, surrounding the baggage battalion, the horse barracks, and the infantry battalion.
However, it is not so accurate to say that it is a circular phalanx, it should be three chariot battalions to form a conical attack formation, with the horse battalion and the infantry cavalry on the left and right, the two baggage camps in the middle, and a chariot battalion behind.
The Xia army and the Xia army obviously noticed this Song army troops, and the main force was controlling the main force to encircle and suppress the 46th Brigade of the Song army, so they could only send Ren Jing to intercept it.
Ren Jing was like a shark smelling blood, and he mobilized more than 10,000 Ma Bu troops, which was also the limit of what he could use, half of which was still a burden, intercepting the 52nd Brigade Town, and waiting for an opportunity to swallow this army.
For him, it's not just a few thousand, and it's a bulky chariot, and he dares to take it out and charge into battle, you think it's the era of Shang and Zhou military vehicles
The party stew advanced with the rolling iron flow, and experienced the vastness of the chariot soldiers in it, and the dense Xia army formation on the opposite side was not taken into account at all, and it was still in a state of protection and attack, advancing unhurriedly.
A volley was fired in a row, and the three chariot battalions fired in unison, and crossbow arrows flew like locusts in the sky, overwhelmingly across the sky, smashing into the Xia army formation on the opposite side.
Strange blood words, bursts of tragic screams, the Xia army's position was in shambles, and those who survived were surprised to find that the enemy had come to their eyes, and they hurriedly counterattacked in panic.
The impact of dense arrows on the chariot was minimal, not to mention the perfect defense on the chariot, even the mules and horses were covered with armor, and each mule and horse was protected by a piece of wet cowhide in front of it, which even crossbow arrows could not penetrate.
Of course, there is complete defense in the world, and there are still war horses that are shot down by crossbow arrows, and the chariots that guide zhì are overturned, but it does not affect the pace of the troops.
The entire car brigade is in accordance with the standard team, the distance between the vehicles is very large, the three cars are formed in a row, and the distance between the platoons is fifty paces, and there is completely time to turn, and there will be no sudden damage to a car, which will cause the unlucky situation of the chariots behind.
It didn't take long for the forward of the 52nd Brigade Town to press the Xia Army formation, which was simply devastating, and the tight Xia Army Army formation was like a piece of brocade silk cut by scissors, which made Ren Jing's eyes fall out.
It is true that the strongest military formation came from the Song army, but the Xia army was also dominated by the infantry army, and the military formation was also a good show. The military formation composed of the commanders and the tribal army was a storage force that could resist the capture army, and it was vulnerable to the Song army's chariots.
How can this not be said that Ren Jing was surprised, even the party was speechless in surprise, the combat effectiveness of the chariot brigade town was too exaggerated, but seeing is believing, and he couldn't help but be surprised.
The mobile battle formation formed by the chariot looked very slow, but it was advancing very smoothly, and the powerful crossbows on the chariot sent out deadly arrows, constantly reaping the lives of the Xia soldiers. The three chariots fought together, and the units were effectively supported by fifty paces, and almost no one could get close to the chariots, even if there were some scattered soldiers, there was no halberd on the cart to slash and kill.
Some of them were caught between the chariot formations and were immediately killed by crossbow arrows from four directions, leaving no room to fight back.
As the chariot rolled forward, leaving behind a mess of flesh and blood, the Xia army's infantry army formation completely collapsed and was split into two pieces.
"Release the horse army and charge me on the left and right flanks." Li Shifu said without hesitation.
